Open now: Call to strengthen remembrance of the Holocaust, genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity to reinforce democracy in the EU

The legacy of recent European history is a crucial pillar of the values the EU stands  for. At a time marked by historical distortion and revisionism, a return of war in Europe due to the Russian aggression against Ukraine, and an unprecedented rise of antisemitism and other forms of hatred in Europe, following the terrorist attacks by Hamas on Israel on 7 October 2023, remembrance of and education about common 20th century European experiences become even more pertinent for all parts of society, particularly for the next generation and people in positions of power. 

The "Strengthening the remembrance of the Holocaust, genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity to reinforce democracy in the EU" is priority 2 of the CERV Programme.
